And right across the street for the stadium, Union Pacific has this steam engine. It blows it's horn regularly. You can hear it in the broadcast sometimes.

My parents took my sister, brother and I to see it during a family vacation to Myrtle Beach…. Spent a lot of time in the pool…. 🏊‍♂️

Vacation to Myrtle Beach in 1993 was where I was when I saw the movie "Jurassic Park".
At the time, that movie blew me away. I couldn't believe how stunning that movie was done.

Finally making some progress in the renovation. I used the flood disaster to reconfigure the guest suite by pulling the entrance out 6 feet and turning an arch into a new doorway, taking the under closet stairs as the new bedroom closet and converting the old closet into a wet bar. Wife says “if I knew you were going to do this much work this week you could have gone to Omaha.” 🤦‍♂️ 7E8F1D85-4896-4A23-A50D-0F90B59C1B4C.jpegF8F659AC-89DD-4E9C-8144-00E8A245970E.jpeg

On June 20 in Baseball History...​
  • 1932 - Roger Cramer of the A's has six hits in consecutive times at bat in a nine-inning game. Cramer will do this again in 1935, the only A.L. player to repeat the feat.

  • 1948 - Cleveland draws 82,781 for a doubleheader, a major league record for a regular season game that will be broken by the same club in 1954. The Indians will attract 2.6 million for the season.

  • 1956 - At Detroit's Briggs Stadium, Mickey Mantle poles two Billy Hoeft pitches into the right center field bleachers, something no other player had done since the bleachers were built in the late 1930s. New York wins 7-4.

  • 1973 - Bobby Bonds leads off with a home run, but the Giants lose 7-5 to the Reds. It is Bonds's 22nd leadoff home run, breaking Lou Brock's N.L. record.

  • 1973 - Chicago's Cy Acosta becomes the first A.L. pitcher to bat since the DH rule went into effect. Acosta strikes out in the eighth inning, but is credited with an 8-3 victory over California.

  • 1982 - Pete Rose plays in his 3,000th major league game (a 3-1 loss to the Pirates), joining Ty Cobb, Stan Musial, Hank Aaron, and Carl Yastrzemski as the only players to reach that plateau.

  • 1986 - After leading the club to a 26-38 record, Tony LaRussa is fired as manager of the White Sox and replaced by Jim Fregosi. LaRussa will be hired to manage the A's early next month.

  • 1991 - The Reds lose the MVP of the 1990 World Series when Jose Rijo breaks his ankle in a steal attempt. Cincinnati also loses the game to Montreal 1-0.
